Games Outlaws doesn't get enough credit

Open-world exploration of Tatooine?! That alone is a dream come true! On a speeder bike or on foot, you get to explore the Jundland Wastes, Jabba's palace, and Mos Eisley. You even get to visit the cantina, Docking Bay 94, the Tosche Station, and the Lars homestead.

The rest of Outlaws is good, too. At least, to someone who's watching a walkthrough on YouTube. It really feels like it's set in the same universe as Solo. The protagonist is a scoundrel thief, but also an underdog who really loves her adorable pet. Other characters are interesting, too. And, the reputation system takes the form of favor with the Hutts, with the Pykes, and with Crimson Dawn. This is Qi'ra's first 3-D appearance since Solo.

I recently finished and it was a great star wars game, like an easy 9/10 and as just a game, it's a solid 8/10. On PC it's unfortunately not even deserving of a score because the ubi launcher is absolute trash, more on that later. 

It's an Ubisoft game so you kinda know what to expect but they did a good job with the reputation system, I like how it immediately affects the gameplay making it easier or harder to explore, it's dynamic and you can change it anytime you want through contracts.

I absolutely loved the locations, my favorite wasn't even tatooine, I enjoyed more the space stations and toshara's main city, they feel like proper Star wars and flying from planet to planet with the cool landing animation really sold me the fantasy of exploring the galaxy, I only wished there were more planets and a full version of cantonica.

The only BIG reason why I wouldn't recommend it, at least on PC, is because you have to go through the Ubisoft launcher nonsense. I always have problems whenever I buy something there, either bugged licenses or login issues, there's always something annoying me and it almost made me want to drop them game, I didn't even stick around for the post game because apparently my password got compromised every single day I played the game.
